what were the following supreme court cases? Question: Marbury v. madison
mcCulloch v maryland
gibbons v ogden
worcester v. georgia
scott v. sandford
munn v. illinois
wabash v. illinois
plessy v. ferguson.
standard oil v. united states
schenck v. us
Us v. Butler
Korematsu v. Us
Brown vs board of ed
Roe v. wade
Answer:
I've got info on a lot of these cases, but I don't even recognize a few of them... Here's what I have:
Marbury v. Madison
Summary: Marbury and several others were appointed to government posts created by Congress in the last days of John Adams's presidency, but these last-minute appointments were never fully finalized. The disgruntled appointees invoked an act of Congress and sued for their jobs in the Supreme Court.
Decision: He was entitled to his job because of an act of Congress. The justices also held, however, through Marshall's forceful argument, that on the last issue the Constitution was "the fundamental and paramount law of the nation" and that "an act of the legislature repugnant to the constitution is void." This case establishes the Supreme Court's power of judicial review.
McCulloch v. Maryland
Summary: Congress chartered The Second Bank of the United States, and Maryland passed legislation to impose taxes on the bank. James W. McCulloch, the cashier of the Baltimore branch of the bank, refused to pay the tax.
Decision: In a unanimous decision, the Court held that Congress had the power to incorporate the bank and that Maryland could not tax instruments of the national government employed in the execution of constitutional powers.
Gibbons v. Ogden
Summary: A New York state law gave two individuals the exclusive right to operate steamboats on waters within state jurisdiction. In this case a steamboat owner who did business between New York and New Jersey challenged the monopoly that New York had granted, which forced him to obtain a special operating permit from the state to navigate on its waters.
Decision: The Court found that New York's licensing requirement for out-of-state operators was inconsistent with a congressional act regulating the coasting trade. The New York law was invalid by virtue of the Supremacy Clause. Regulation of navigation by steamboat operators and others for purposes of conducting interstate commerce was a power reserved to and exercised by the Congress. / Also gave meaning to the phrase "among the several states" in the Commerce Clause of Article I and applied it to states using the 10th Amendment.
Plessy v. Ferguson
Summary: The state of Louisiana enacted a law that required separate railway cars for blacks and whites. In 1892, Homer Adolph Plessy--who was seven-eighths Caucasian--took a seat in a "whites only" car of a Louisiana train. He refused to move to the car reserved for blacks and was arrested.
Question: Is Louisiana's law mandating racial segregation on its trains an unconstitutional infringement on both the privileges and immunities and the equal protection clauses of the Fourteenth Amendment?
Decision: No, the state law is within constitutional boundaries. The majority, in an opinion authored by Justice Henry Billings Brown, upheld state-imposed racial segregation. The justices based their decision on the separate-but-equal doctrine, that separate facilities for blacks and whites satisfied the Fourteenth Amendment so long as they were equal. (The phrase, "separate but equal" was not part of the opinion.) Justice Brown conceded that the 14th amendment intended to establish absolute equality for the races before the law. But Brown noted that "in the nature of things it could not have been intended to abolish distinctions based upon color, or to enforce social, as distinguished from political equality, or a commingling of the two races unsatisfactory to either." In short, segregation does not in itself constitute unlawful discrimination.
Schenck v. United States
Case: Schenck mailed out notices urged people not to submit to the draft. He was then charged with conspiracy, violating the Espionage Act.
Question: Are Schenck's actions (words, expression) protected by the free speech clause of the First Amendment?
Decision: Schenck is not protected in this situation. It established the “clear-and-present danger clause” to decide whether words were allowed.
Affected: The First Amendment’s provisions for free speech and free press.
Korematsu v. United States
Summary: During World War II, Presidential Executive Order 9066 and congressional statutes gave the military authority to exclude citizens of Japanese ancestry from areas deemed critical to national defense and potentially vulnerable to espionage. Korematsu remained in San Leandro, California and violated Civilian Exclusion Order No. 34 of the U.S. Army.
Question: Did the President and Congress go beyond their war powers by implementing exclusion and restricting the rights of Americans of Japanese descent?
Decision: The Court sided with the government and held that the need to protect against espionage outweighed Korematsu's rights. Justice Black argued that compulsory exclusion, though constitutionally suspect, is justified during circumstances of "emergency and peril."
Brown v. Board of Education I
Summary: Black children were denied admission to public schools attended by white children under laws requiring or permitting segregation according to the races. The white and black schools approached equality in terms of buildings, curricula, qualifications, and teacher salaries.
Decision: The segregation of children in public schools solely on the basis of race deprives the minority children of the” equal protection of the law” guaranteed by the 14th Amendment. (Overturned Plessy v. Ferguson)
Brown v. Board of Education II
Summary: Established what means should be used to implement the principles announced in the case of Brown I.
Chief Justice Warren urged localities to act on the new principles promptly and to move toward full compliance with them "with all deliberate speed."
Roe v. Wade
Summary: Roe, a Texas resident, sought to terminate her pregnancy by abortion. Texas law prohibited abortions except to save the pregnant woman's life. After granting certiorari, the Court heard arguments twice. The first time, Roe's attorney -- Sarah Weddington -- could not locate the constitutional hook of her argument for Justice Potter Stewart. Her opponent -- Jay Floyd -- misfired from the start. Weddington sharpened her constitutional argument in the second round. Her new opponent -- Robert Flowers -- came under strong questioning from Justices Potter Stewart and Thurgood Marshall.
Question: Does the Constitution embrace a woman's right to terminate her pregnancy by abortion?
Decision: The Court held that a woman's right to an abortion fell within the right to privacy (recognized in Griswold v. Connecticut) protected by the Fourteenth Amendment. The decision gave a woman total autonomy over the pregnancy during the first trimester and defined different levels of state interest for the second and third trimesters. As a result, the laws of 46 states were affected by the Court's ruling.
Hope this info helps you out. :-)

doesnt it miss some players?
like t-mac, shawn marion, vince carter, gilbert??
Answer:
I really can't believe Brandon Roy made it to the all-star game..I give him credit that the Trailblazers are one of the hottest teams that surprised everyone, but I don't think he deserves being selected into the all-star game. Baron "B-diddy" davis should of gotten the nod with his defensive skills and durability this year. If Baron Davis and Brandon roy played one on one to get into the all-star game, Baron would beat him out. The stats don't lie. On another note, Hedo Turkoglu and Shawn Marion are other players who got snubbed. The Western conference is so competitive, but its so obvious these players could of gotten picked over David West and Brandon Roy.

Should all deputies be given limited federal power to combat illegal immigrants like in HAMILTON, Ohio ? Question: HAMILTON, Ohio -- Eight Butler County Sheriff’s deputies will return next month from training in Georgia with some new authority.The deputies will be given limited federal power to combat illegal immigrants after their training exercises with Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, and Jones told News 5 that six ICE agents have been working from his office for two months.“We are connected to the federal government; we are a part of them at this point,” said Butler County Sheriff Richard Jones.Deputies will not be able to arrest anyone they suspect of being an illegal immigrant, but will focus their efforts on corrections, Jones said.When an illegal immigrant commits a crime, Jones said deputies would assist in the detaining and deportation process.“If you commit a crime and come to my jail, and it's determined by the federal government that you should be deported, the way I understand it, we will help streamline that deportation,” Jones said.
After the deputies return to Butler County from training, another group will undergo ICE training as investigators.
Some Latino business owners said Jones has created an inhospitable atmosphere for them and their customers, and Diomys Rosario said he would soon close his Hamilton mini-mart.
“Basically I'm 40 percent off on my customers,” Rosario said.
http://www.wlwt.com/news/15015422/detail.html
Answer:
The mantra of "it's not my job, it is a federal issue" is just plain ludicrous.
How many other federal laws go unenforced? Bank Robbery is a federal crime. Do local officers have to have special training to enforce that law? When a bank is being robbed does the dispatcher say "call the FBI?" That is a federal crime?
No. All federal laws get enforced at the local level. Local cops may turn it over to the feds but it gets enforced at the local level first.
This not my job cra* has got to stop. Illegals are not living in the "Federal" there is no such place. Illegals are living in the local communities and that is where the problem needs to be addressed.

Creationists? Question:
Scietists have said we have never written a peer reviewed paper, or been in a sciene journal... That's because the world won't let us.
*Question*
Does this make you feel all warm and cozy inside?
Om, I know what you are saying but that was not the point, the point was that we are not all dumb as you think we are.
This is not the complete list.
Answer:
Yes,and it is true that they will never get airtime in the mainstream media.Nor will they write textbooks.But then the truth has always been a precious commodity to be sought out by truthseekers.It can't be found in governmental schools or the press.
